Ads target Heller, Capito over healthcare vote

A progressive group is targeting GOP Sens. Dean Heller (Nev.) and Shelley Moore Capito (W.Va.) for supporting a crucial procedural vote on healthcare. 

Save My Care launched a six figure digital and TV ad buy in Nevada and West Virginia attacking the senators for “breaking their promise” by supporting a motion to proceed to debate on a healthcare bill Tuesday. 

{mosads}”Senator Capito just broke her promise by casting the deciding vote to repeal our healthcare,” the narrator says in one of the ads.  

“Because of Capito, over 100,000 West Virginians could lose their insurance.”

The ads tell viewers to contact their senators and urge them to vote against any GOP healthcare bill as the chamber continues to debate what its plan to repeal and replace ObamaCare will look like. 

“But Senator Capito will have one more chance to do the right thing,” the narrator continues.

“Tell her to keep her promise to protect our care.”

Both Capito and Heller were holdouts on the GOP’s initial-repeal and-replace measure but supported a procedural vote to advance it on Tuesday, which ultimately failed.
